My dog Gus is extremely fussy when it comes to eating so I decided to have a chat with him about his fussy habits.

Me: Gus, you've become rather strange since the, er, operation.
Gus: Wouldn't you be strange if you had your sex organs removed.
Me: Well, I suppose I would but I don't go around spraying male hormones and urine everywhere.
Gus: It's my right as a male dog guarding your house.
Me: Well, I don't see what pissing on the bed has to do with guarding the house. Let's change the subject.
Gus: I suppose you're going to ask me why I don't like Royal Canin biscuits when you paid 20 bucks for a bag.
Me: Actually I was.
Gus: Because they're (expletive deleted).
Me: And what about the Chow biscuits?
Gus: You mean cat Chow?
Me: Same as dog biscuits.
Gus: That's (expletive deleted). I refuse to eat cat food. I only eat Pedigree.
Me: It's hard to get.
Gus: Get it!
Me: And another thing. You seem to eat pistachio nuts and Brie cheese. That's not a dog thing.
Gus: Makes a change from rice and peas mixed in with my KFC.
Me: They're good for you.
Gus: Like you tell the wife beer is good for you?
Me: What would you like to eat?
Gus: I wouldn't mind a Chinese now and then. And some Turkey. And no cans please--I do not do cans.
Me: You're impossible.
Gus: So are you but I'm getting old.

Another great entry in our pet parade!

Great to meet Gus.  Dynamaso and Pumpkin, Socrates before he left us, Dharma and Henry, and of course Sally.

Thanks for that LW. Hope I can get a hold of some of those self-feeding toys. They are so clever. Unfortunately, in Egypt these type of things are scarce as is Pedigree--it's not always freely available. I'll see what I can do.
